When Browns quarterback Joe Flacco won Super Bowl XLVII with the Ravens in 2012, Bears quarterback Justin Fields wouldn't turn 13 for another month. Now, the two will face off against each other's teams in Week 15.
While Chicago isn't mathematically eliminated from the playoff field just yet, it would take a lot to break right for the Bears to get into the postseason. But, at the very least, Chicago is riding a two-game winning streak behind two solid performances from Fields. Their evaluation of the young quarterback will be the biggest takeaway from the final month with at least one top-five 2024 NFL draft pick likely coming for the Bears this spring.
The Browns look to remain in the AFC playoff hunt with a win Sunday. Cleveland is 8-5 and entered Week 15 with sole possession of the AFC's fifth seed in the playoff field. Flacco looks as elite as ever after a 300-yard, three-touchdown performance in Week 14, and Cleveland eyes its first winning season since 2020 if the Browns can snag a victory.
The Bears are no joke despite their 5-8 record – especially on defense. Chicago has allowed more than 17 points in a game just once since Week 6 and hasn't allowed more than 13 points in back-to-back games. Cleveland's defense is equally impressive, though, with the No. 1 defense in yards allowed and the 14th in points allowed.
Here's what you need to know about Sunday's Week 15 clash between the Bears and Browns, including the broadcast information and start time.
